Mine isn't as big but I also haven't slammed it like you did. It looks nice though. A little intimidating though.

Thats a mackin wake!! Definitely looks a little intimidating

It's for sure a really fun wake with a TON of boot to come with it. I really like the kick that mine provides at the top of the wake, little old SANTE like. Always down to have peeps give it a go. If you ever find your way through UT or at times Antelope Point Marina Lake Powell hit me up. Always DFTR for a good set...

PM Drew Richardson username: Surffresh on here. He sells MB's in the SouthEast.

Drew is a super good guy. I know he sells all over the south east but his home base last time I checked was Orlando. My only question is who services the boats aka any warranty work etc. Everything else can be done at any reputable marine dealer.

My 2006 Centurion Lightning. No ballast going about between 19 and 22 mph. It tends to wash a lot on the landing side. With more weight in the front, it firms up and shapes nicely. It is difficult to get a clean wake on both sides. The deep V is pretty sensitive to weight.

I am still experimenting on it to see what give me the cleanest wake at 22mph at 70'. Most of my riders just go with no ballast and people in the boat. They are beginners though. The boat loves bow weight. I have put about 600lbs up in the bow and no weight in the rear and it looked good. I am planning on trying to put 1000 lbs in the bow and maybe 600lbs in the rear plus passengers and seeing how it looks.

My port side wake washes sometimes so I have to adjust the trim plate some and it helps a lot if I lower the plate most of the way down.

One of the cleanest wakes my boat has made was when I had 9 people in it and one rider and no ballast. If I find something that works really well, I will let you know about it.

Reason: added wording for clearity.

Man I have been thinking about the X 30 as the next boat and that wake looks good- but the MB wakes are AWESOME with stock ballast! Wish we had a dealer in MInnesota! the 21 wide body is a killer boat.

Thanks man. I'll have to try loading up the bow. I do notice quite frequently, that the boat tends to sit high on the water in the bow area.
